Thread: Seat Toledo 1.2 TSI first drive review

The combination of a small petrol turbo and base spec make for the pick of the Toledo range. This is the model that, on paper, makes the most sense in the new Seat Toledo range. Go any lower than the 84bhp 1. 2 TSI in the line-up, and youll end up with the outdated 74bhp 1. 2 MPI engine, which is slower and less powerful but is lumbered with worse economy and greater CO2 emissions, and comes with more expensive road tax and increased fuel bills as a result. Go any higher in the range, into the more powerful petrols and more efficient diesels, and the price goes up considerably as a result, thus losing the main selling point of the Toledo as cheap, practical and no-frills transport. So the 14,120 Toledo 1. 2 TSI 85 in S trim, the only trim available with this engine, would appear to be the Toledo's sweet spot.
